Ain Tsila is a gas condensate field situated in the Illizi Basin, Algeria, located within the Isarene permit in Blocks 228 and 229a. The Ain Tsila field boasts reserves amounting to 2.1 trillion cubic feet of sales gas, alongside 67 million barrels of condensate and 108 million barrels of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Discovered in 2009 through the successful drilling of the Ain Tsila-1 well, this gas condensate field garnered significant recognition, ranking as the ninth-largest discovery globally for that year. Spanning an extensive area exceeding 1,000 square kilometers, Ain Tsila represents a substantial addition to the energy landscape.

The Saipem Endeavour is an offshore heavy-lift and S-lay pipelay barge, built in 2010 and operating within the Saipem fleet. Designed for operations ranging from shallow-water to deep-water environments, the vessel supports offshore projects through pipeline installation, heavy lifting, subsea installation and maintenance activities.

The project involves the development of the Quiluma and Maboqueiro non-associated gas fields through two offshore platforms, pipeline connections and an onshore gas treatment plant designed to feed the Angola LNG plant in Soyo. Its objective is to enhance the value of Angola’s natural gas resources, ensure a stable gas supply to the LNG plant and strengthen the national energy value chain.
